Sure enough, there's something greasy behind the shrine, right? Jin Miaomiao sat up straight and stared at Shen Cha with blazing eyes, "Sure enough, my hunch is right, right?" ”

"Yes!" Shen Cha smiled, "Your hunch has always been right, you have to have confidence in yourself, you have never gone wrong." You should have noticed that not only the Buddha shrine is problematic, but also the incense case, the incense burner on it cannot be moved, and at most three pillars of fine incense can be inserted, a little thicker or a little more in quantity, it is not possible. ”

"Yes, I asked Her Royal Highness the eldest princess why the incense burner is of such a structure, but she is not particularly clear." Jin Miaomiao asked Shen Cha to take all the remaining pine nuts on the table and began to peel them one by one. "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said that this Buddhist shrine was left by the previous dynasty, and the queen mother wanted to remove this incense burner before, but she gave up after trying a few times, and it didn't affect anything anyway."

"If you are a little more curious, you will find that the incense burner is not completely fixed, it cannot move up and down, but it can turn left and right. Hold the incense burner with both hands and turn it four times to the left, then one to the right, and two times to the left. ”

"What about after the turn? What kind of spectacle will emerge? ”

"The secret passage behind the shrine was revealed."

Shen Cha stood beside Jin Miaomiao, waiting for her to finish peeling all the pine nuts, picked up the plate full of pine nuts, rubbed it back to Shen Haolin's side, and the two of them ate together.

"You two are really embarrassed, huh, you know how to pick up ready-made." Jin Miaomiao raised her eyebrows, "Where does this secret passage lead?" ”

According to the description of the king of Kiri, at the end of this secret passage was a very private courtyard outside the city, where the old lady and her confidants met. It's a pity that they haven't seen the scene on the streets, and they haven't caught a single person. Shen Cha shook his head helplessly, "King Tong said that this is a lifelong regret, if they catch the old lady's contact with the outside world, they will get rid of her earlier, and they will not let her make waves." ”

"How can you catch it?" Jin Miaomiao shook her head helplessly, "Seriously, if it weren't for the troublemakers of the concubines, before the construction of the secret passage, it would have been their eyeliner that was cleared and driven out of the palace." By the way, what happened to these craftsmen? ”

"The excuse is to repair the old lady's mausoleum, and then ......" Shen Cha gestured at his neck, "Understand?" ”

"Just like I thought, kill people and kill people." Jin Miaomiao nodded, "The good news has come out in advance, even if you can't catch it, you can know that the old lady is not really concentrating on worshipping the Buddha, but under the banner of worshipping the Buddha, she is making small moves behind her back." She sighed, "How long has the old lady been silent?" What opportunity did you take to make a comeback? ”

"It took about two and a half years to get to know the people and things around me before I was ready to start implementing my plan. She took a fancy to the youngest son of the former dynasty prince Su, that is, the cousin of Emperor Chongde, and wanted to support him to become the heir of Emperor Jiaren. ”

"This youngest son of the Suwang family is very good?"

"On the contrary, this little prince can be said to be the most inconspicuous of the royal children of Emperor Chongde's generation." Shen Cha shook his head at Jin Miaomiao, "The courage is relatively small, the brain is relatively stupid, when the old lady picked him, he was already eleven years old, but he hadn't even read the four books, and he was stumbling to express one thing." The only advantage is that it is very well-behaved and obedient. ”

"This is the only advantage, and I am afraid that it is the main reason why the old lady chose him." Jin Miaomiao touched her chin, "It seems that I said before that the old lady wants to choose an obedient child to be the emperor, and she can listen to the government." ”

"That's right, she really thinks so, power is very important in her eyes, more important than her life."

"I want to fulfill my wish when I was young."

"Yes." Shen Cha glanced at Jin Miaomiao, then looked at the small plate in front of her, saw her protecting it with her hand, chuckled, and waved his hand at her, "Don't eat it, you don't have to be like this." ”

Jin Miaomiao didn't speak, and quickly stuffed all the pine nuts on the plate into her mouth.

"Really!" Shen Cha couldn't cry or laugh, "Eh, continue to talk about the old lady, on the day of Emperor Jiaren's birthday, she mentioned this matter to King Su and Princess Su who came to celebrate her birthday, but she didn't say that she wanted to train the little prince to be an heir, but just said that she had an eye for the little prince, much like her deceased little son, and wanted to take the little prince to live in the palace for a while." King Su and the princess are not people who chase fame and fortune, they just want to live an ordinary life, but this does not mean that they have no brains. They knew that Emperor Jiaren and the Queen Mother were not on good terms, and the Queen Mother wanted her son to enter the palace, which was not simply a companion, but must have other purposes. So, when the old lady first mentioned this, the two of them refused. ”

"Refused? The old lady will never give up, and what she wants to do, I'm afraid she won't give up so easily. ”

"She really didn't give up, and in the next month, she kept sending things to King Su's Mansion, and these things had to be given to the little prince by name."

"This trick is quite ruthless, the little prince is cowardly, he has been rewarded with so many good things, he must be jealous of other brothers and sisters in the palace, his days in the palace will become more and more difficult as more and more rewards become more and more valuable. Even if King Su and the princess are not happy with a hundred or ten thousand, they must obediently send their children to the palace for the sake of their youngest son. ”

"However, it was Emperor Chongde and King Tong who persuaded them to send their children to the palace."

"Huh?" Jin Miaomiao was stunned, "Why the two of them?" ”

"All the actions of the old lady did not leave the sight of Emperor Chongde and King Tong, including Emperor Jiaren. The relationship between Emperor Jiaren and King Su has always been very good, and the two brothers will occasionally make an appointment to drink, have a meal, and talk about their unsatisfactory and so on. But since Emperor Jiaren's birthday, how did he make an appointment with King Su, King Su did not go to the appointment under various excuses, and later Emperor Chongde told King Tong what was going on with Emperor Jiaren. ”

"As the saying goes, knowing the mother Mo Ruozi, Emperor Jiaren didn't even finish the whole story, so he knew what the old lady was thinking." Shen Cha sighed, handed Shen Haolin a cup of tea, let him moisten his throat, and continued, "Although he is an extremely selfish person, this selfishness only involves his personal interests. He couldn't watch King Su embarrassed, so he asked his son and adopted son to persuade King Su to send the little prince into the palace, and let them tell King Su that it was more dangerous for the little prince to stay in the palace than to enter the palace. His own mother, he knows very well that if King Su and the princess refuse, the little prince may lose his life, and even implicate the entire Su Wangfu. ”

Shen Haolin heard footsteps outside, and quickly put away all the things on the table, and when he finished putting it away, he saw that the door was pushed open, and Song Qiyun's little head poked in from the outside.
